About the Forum

Universal Autonomous Forum examines autonomous systems and their consequences for technology, governance, economics, and society.

Understanding the systems taking shape

From software agents to physical machines, autonomy is becoming a question for everyone. UAF follows the technologies being built, the institutions setting the rules, and the decisions shaping how these systems enter everyday life.

A public record of an autonomous universe

Our reporting and analysis connect technical developments with the people and institutions affected by them. We ask what systems can do, who is accountable for their actions, and what their adoption means for work and society.
